Greater customer involvment
The New Reality for Thales has deep, intrinsic Customer involvement at its heart.
We are committed to engaging you in more ways and at many different levels because that is what research told us you would like to see happen more often
To this end, in addition to the now well-established annual Thales Customer Survey and biannual Thales Customer Conference we are pleased to announce three new initiatives designed to help us work closer together.
These fresh initiatives are Account Management Visits, Expert Working Groups and a twice-yearly Customer Involvement Panel - all of which can be conducted as and when you require them.
Reality Integrated Solutions
In a market where Customers increasingly demand integrated solutions how can we elevate ours above the rest?
Flexible, modular and customisable. These are not just the watchwords that apply to our extraordinary 'RealitySeven' flight simulator but to our entire business model when it comes to facilitating Part and Full task simulation training.
We can help you design your own training facilities and infrastructure. And provide assistance in interpreting the latest regulatory standards. Or help you run your existing training centre facility in conjunction with nominated trusted partners who comply with Thales' exacting quality standards. In short, if you are looking for a business partner that can provide you with a consistent and cohesive quality solution to your training and simulation challenges, look to Reality Integrated Solutions. Look to Thales.

Reality Support Solutions
Reality Support Solutions is a programme that delivers global support to your operations. We have developed three levels of service and these are Reality Cover, Reality Assist and Reality Shield.
This gives you the flexibility to choose precisely the right level of support for your business, either short term or long term, and guarantees absolute peace of mind.
Reality Cover
Reality Cover gives you the world-class service you would expect from Thales and is provided as part of your equipment purchase. It delivers 24/7 support, access to our web portal and includes e-services and progress tracking. You also receive our company news, service and product information, technical support, field service bulletins, obsolescence notification and regional support as standard.
Reality Assist
In addition to the services provided by Reality Cover, Reality Assist allows you to design your own, fully-customisable modular support services package to satisfy your specific business expectations.
Reality Shield
Reality Shield is our comprehensive turnkey maintenance and operational services product. If you are interested in outsourcing significant business elements and transferring a large degree of operational responsibility to Thales, this is the level of cover for you.
Reality Equipment Solutions
Reality Equipment Solutions feature an integrated family of devices that cover every aspect of your flight and maintenance training needs.
All of our devices are driven by the same outstanding simulation software - from the lowest level Desk Top Trainer to the highest level Full Flight Simulator. And there is more to come, including equipment to support all four phases of the new Multi-crew Pilot Licence.
Furthermore, our Reality Equipment Solutions benefit from the broader Thales Group specializations of avionics, In-Flight Entertainment (IFE) systems and other aerospace products that we supply to airframe Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), airlines and airports around the world.
Scalability is key
Thales offers a range of FAA/EASA/ICAO compliant Part and Full task simulation training devices, all of which are capable of being integrated with either your own or another vendor's training wares, to support your training requirements. These include:
- Ab Initio via MPL Phases 1 to 4
- Type rating/ATPL
- Recurrent training/testing and checking
- Transition
- Recency
- Maintenance training
- Cabin Crew training
Increased modularity, simplicity and flexibility
Our latest, revolutionary designs have a modular architecture with common core elements that can operate independently of the aircraft type. This makes the interchange between aircraft types remarkably easy should your fleet or training business needs shift.
This simplicity also facilitates a smooth, streamlined acceptance and delivery process that can better meet your scheduling needs and reduce lead times. Such welcome flexibility also supports increased levels of offset and workshare.
Benefit from lower lifecycle costs
Key technologies such as Digital Electrical Control Loading and Electric Motion systems drive down your operational costs through greatly reduced power consumption while continuing to deliver increased reliability and availability above 99%.
Green is good
Our all-new product designs encompass the latest environmental, 'Green' directives and manufacturing processes to drastically reduce carbon footprint and could contribute to your company's carbon credit programme.
We will keep your operations up-to-date as technology evolves
Thales continues to lead the way in simulation technology and is able to support full training requirements based upon not just current but future aircraft technology and training models. We also employ common solutions across our product range, including state-of-the-art visual solutions, so that our intelligent systems comfortably integrate with each other.
